The RO is marginally heavier – Formula claim 361g with a 160mm rotor, versus 336g for The One; our samples weigh 280g front and 292g rear, without rotors but with all hardware, including rotor bolts. This is partly down to the larger pistons but the new brake also gains a tool-free reach adjuster (this has also been added to The One for 2012) and pad contact adjustment dial.

Elsewhere, it carries over the previous flagship's best features, including its one-piece calliper and super-light flip-flop lever with split bar clamp. As you'd expect, pricing is higher than The One, at £249 ($380) per end, not including rotors, compared to £229 (US$290).

We'll be putting the new brake through its paces over the next couple of months – look out for a review in Mountain Biking UK and on BikeRadar soon. Formula brakes are available in the UK via Silverfish.

With the pads removed, you can see the new oval piston:

The pistons are lightly ovalised but it's hard to spot unless you get up close
